알트 슈베린 최고의 사이클링 경로

From the southeastern shore of Lake Malchow, there is an impressive view of the former Malchow Monastery, situated on a small hill on the opposite shore. The striking red brick buildings with their tall church towers dominate the town's panorama and, when the water is calm, are atmospherically reflected in the lake. The former Magdalene Convent, later a Cistercian monastery and finally a noble women's convent, is now an important cultural monument. The viewing point on the lakeshore is easily accessible via the cycling and hiking path and invites you to take a short rest with a view of the historic skyline of Old Malchow.

A bike ride to the Malchow town windmill is worthwhile in every respect: Built around 1843, this gallery-style windmill has been lovingly restored and impresses with its large, approximately 24-meter-long wind turbine. Visitors can enjoy exhibitions on mill technology, regional history, and the mill's own restoration work on several floors. The mill is not only a technical monument but also a cultural meeting place—especially during the annual Mill Festival on Whit Monday.

Attention houseboat captains, don’t fall asleep, there’s a bend here!

The tour is very connected to nature and yet the route is easy to ride.....

Nice place to stop

great view of the lake

Malchow is wonderful to explore by bike and offers ideal conditions for cycling. This charming island town delights with its blend of nature, history, and relaxed atmosphere. A good starting point is Malchow's town harbor, with its view of the swing bridge, which opens hourly and is a small experience in itself. From there, a well-developed network of cycle paths leads along Lake Malchow and on through wooded landscapes and tranquil fields. A tour around Lake Fleesen or a detour into the "Blüthenmoor" nature reserve is particularly worthwhile, where, with a bit of luck, you might spot cranes or white-tailed eagles. Cultural attractions can also be easily incorporated, such as the DDR Museum or the historic monastery church on the monastery island. For a relaxing break, there are cafés and restaurants with lake views – the outdoor terraces right by the swing bridge are especially lovely. The routes are mostly flat and well signposted, making Malchow suitable for both ambitious cyclists and those who prefer a leisurely ride. Those who don't bring their own bicycle will find numerous rental stations on site, including those offering e-bikes. This makes cycling around Malchow a truly enjoyable experience amidst water, forests, and expansive views.

The trail runs between Lenz and the Malchow Nature Camp and leads through ancient beech forests along the eastern shore of Lake Plau. The path, narrow in places, runs partly directly along the lake and partly slightly elevated. It is natural, technically moderately difficult, and ideal for mountain bikes or gravel bikes. Roots and short climbs provide variety, and there are always magnificent views over the lake. This route is ideal for cyclists seeking a combination of athletic challenge and enjoyment of nature. The proximity to the lake and the passage through the beech forest make it a special experience in the Mecklenburg Lake District.
